here’s a quick shot I snapped on my way to Yishun earlier on after alumni choir rehearsal. so, An Evening With Friends 2014 (ACJC College and Alumni Choir’s annual concert) begins tomorrow and I have been nothing short of excited for the whole five months in which I’ve been rehearsing with the alumni choir.
Month: May 2014
–71: “we travel, some of us forever, to seek other states, other lives, other souls.”
throwback to June 2012, during ACJC Choir’s Europe tour to Poland and Austria w dół alei / down the alley date: circa june 2012 location: Kraków, Polska / Cracow, Poland “We travel, some of us forever, to seek other states, other lives, other souls.” —The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Vol. 7: 1966-1974, Anaïs Nin
–81: “that was the thing. you never got used to it, the idea of someone being gone. just when you think it’s reconciled, accepted, someone points it out to you, and it just hits you all over again, that shocking.”
sunsets always held lots of meaning to me: they were always a beautiful sight to behold, a conclusion to the day, a spark of hope for a better tomorrow, an artistic inspiration for a better blend of colours in a technicolour life (and whatever else you may interpret it as) but for today, the sunset…
–89: “yours is the light by which my spirit’s born: yours is the darkness of my soul’s return – you are my sun, my moon, and all my stars.”

–90: “after silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.”
(image credits to Edmund Arthur Gray on deviantart) first post while at work and the only thing running through my mind is music and how hauntingly beautiful it can be. I’ll leave things at that. now, back to work! Life is for the living. Death is for the dead. Let life be like music. And…
–91: “life is a journey of realization, which often ends in that place where dreams never begin.”
(image credits to Finance Money Live) sudden realisation of the day (and perhaps week/month): we are often convinced that ‘there is someone out there waiting for us’ and that everyone certainly has a ‘special someone’ for them (see: Plato’s The Symposium: Aristophanes’ dialogue). we apparently spend all our lives searching for their ‘other half’ so…
–92: “blessed is he who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed.”
(image credits to citizen.tv) there might be some curiosity as to why I placed a ‘–92’ before the title of the post, which is almost always a quote. it’s something I will explain in a while so please bear with my banal ramblings. everything will make sense in the end. I was thinking about the…
“…I see myself at crossroads in my life, mapless, lacking bits of knowledge – then, the moon breaks through, lights up the path before me…”
(image credits to DC Infinite) hello there, my meagre space of the web, tucked away in the little corner behind all the issues that seem to ‘really matter’ these days (and by ‘issues’ I mean the who’s-who of what’s-that-world and the like). I seem to have neglected you throughout the month of April, and I…
